Zhou Lanping nodded from time to time. She also tried to turn off the gas in the gas tank. It was not too difficult and she could remember it.
She tried many times before she mastered how to use the gas stove. The kitchen is a woman's world, and many women can actually learn how to use the gas stove without any instruction.
Zhou Lanping was like getting a new toy. After he had a clear understanding of the principle of the gas stove, he was still reluctant to leave the little chef. The soup in the pot was almost boiled into rice crust because of her turning it on and off.
Fortunately, Liu Liang had already fried the other dishes and cooked the chicken, otherwise they would have had to eat the ash from the bottom of the pot today.
Zhou Lanping finally had enough of looking at and touching her new gas stove, and then something hit her. She snapped it shut, her eyes fixed on Liu Liang for a long moment.
"Jingjing, where did you get the money?"
She knew her family background. She was so poor that she could only find dirt when she dug three feet deep into the ground. She only had a few hundred yuan in savings. So where did Liu Jing get all this money from?
"I sold those clothes."
Liu Liang picked up the dishes and walked towards the table outside. Zhou Lanping hurriedly followed her out. When she heard that Liu Liang had sold the clothes, her face turned pale. She quickly ran into Liu Liang's room and opened the wardrobe. She knew that Liu Liang cared very much about her clothes and would not let anyone touch or move them.
But now, when the cabinet is opened, it is empty, with only a few scattered items placed inside.
She ran out again, her eyes red.
"Jingjing, how can you sell clothes? Those are your favorite clothes!"
“I love eating now.”
Liu Liang stuffed the chopsticks into Zhou Lanping's hand and filled her bowl with dishes. If this still couldn't shut her up, she didn't know what to say.
"Don't you like gas stoves, Mom?"
Liu Liang looked up and asked Zhou Lanping, "Anyway, I like them very much. I sold those clothes for a lot of money. Clothes will get old and you won't like them anymore, but what you eat will help me grow and keep me healthy."
Zhou Lanping held the chopsticks stupidly.
Can she say that what Liu Jing said was very good and she was speechless?
Zhou Lanping was eating the rice in the bowl. She took a bite of the chicken and it was really delicious, much better than the ones cooked in big restaurants. No wonder, as soon as she took out the lunch box, the teachers' eyes lit up. She thought that if other people were eating this food, she might also have green eyes and drool.
She had just eaten a piece of chicken and was about to take a second bite when someone knocked on the door.
She went to open the door, and it turned out to be Granny Wang again.
"Auntie, your grandson is picky about food again?" Zhou Lanping couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. This time and twice, he came over at mealtime. Now Zhou Lanping knew what was going on without asking too much.
Grandma Wang's face turned red with embarrassment when she said this. Her grandson was like a starving ghost every day. If he didn't have a piece of pork rib to eat, he would not eat anything. She had no choice but to risk her old face and come to beg for food.
And her old face will be completely disgraced by that grandson.
Zhou Lanping didn't want to embarrass Grandma Wang, so he spoke quickly.
"It just so happens that my wife Jingjing made potato chicken nuggets today. They are soft, sticky and fragrant. I will give some to uncle later. Uncle likes chicken, so I asked her to try it. As she was talking, she came back."
When she came over, she realized that she had not discussed it with Liu Jing yet. When she came back, Liu Jing had already picked up the chopsticks and put the ribs and chicken nuggets into the plate.
Zhou Lanping felt both touched and relieved. Who said her child was not good? Her child was obviously a cold-outside-but-warm-hearted child. He was also a generous and sensible child.
Zhou Lanping came out with the bowl. Fortunately, Grandma Wang would bring her the bowl tomorrow, otherwise she would have no bowl left.
She picked up a large bowl of ribs and chicken nuggets.
And Grandma Wang also took a deep breath of the smell.
It's this taste. Not only the children are craving it, but even the adults are craving it. Look at the color and the fragrance. When she thinks of how delicious her grandson is eating it at home, she likes it in her heart.
"Lanping, this is for you, take it." Grandma Wang felt embarrassed to take other people's things every day, so she handed the plastic bag in her hand to Zhou Lanping. Zhou Lanping picked it up and took a look at it, and immediately wanted to return it to Grandma Wang.
The plastic bag contains nothing but ribs. It is half full and quite heavy. I am afraid it weighs at least three or four pounds.
The ribs are two yuan per pound, and they already cost ten yuan. How could she accept other people's food?
"Here, take it."
Granny Wang stuffed the bag into Zhou Lanping's hand again, "It's just a few pounds of ribs. Your Jingjing's ribs are much better than those sold in big restaurants. If you really sell them, you can make more than just the money from these ribs."
Zhou Lanping wanted to push it away, but Granny Wang got angry and said, "If I tell you to take it, then take it. If you don't take it, you're slapping me in the face. If you take it, I'll have the nerve to come here and give my grandson some food in the future."
After saying this, Grandma Wang ignored Zhou Lanping and left with the bowl in her hand. She was still thinking that if the old man at home liked it, she would have to get a chicken tomorrow.
Zhou Lanping brought the ribs over and placed them on the table.
"Jingjing, this is from Granny Wang."
Liu Liang opened the bag and took a look inside. Wow, these were all good ribs, the best ribs from the pig, better than the ribs she bought. If they were cooked, they would taste even better.
"How about sending it back to your Grandma Wang?"
Zhou Lanping still felt guilty holding this bag of ribs.
"I think she prefers the ribs cooked through."
Liu Jing has already thought of what to do with these ribs? Spare ribs are not just braised, they can be made into many flavors. The Xu family is so difficult to serve, and they all rely on her cooking skills, which is enough to prove how good her cooking skills are.
Not to mention four or five pounds of ribs, even if it was dozens of pounds, she would think it was a bit cheap if it was exchanged for her piece.
Then I will give more to your Grandma Wang tomorrow.
Zhou Lanping thought about it and decided to take the initiative to deliver it to Grandma Wang tomorrow. This way, she wouldn't feel uncomfortable, and neither would Grandma Wang.
Yes, that’s right. Her daughter Jingjing is so smart.
In the evening, Zhou Lanping put down her pen and stretched. She happened to see the clock hanging on the wall. The hands pointed to half past ten. It was already this time. She looked back at Liu Jing's door which was always tightly closed. The child must be asleep. He is just a grown-up. It would be better for him to sleep more. He didn't even go to the toilet. He must be fast asleep.
